Brandon grew up in the forested foothills of Northern BC. He wore enormous jeans and rode a skateboard to Blockbuster. He got good weed and bad grades and joined the army after high school, deploying to Afghanistan twice and rehab once. 

 

Brandon became a bookworm in Kandahar to escape the traumas of combat. After the army, he went to university and majored in management, filling his electives with English and creative writing courses. He fell in love with writing fiction.

​

Brandon writes in the mornings and works as a public servant during the day. His fiction has appeared in The Antigonish Review, The Galway Review, NōD Magazine, Shift, and others. He’s writing a collection of connected short stories about the War in Afghanistan. He’s the founder and Executive Editor of MoonLit Getaway and lives in Edmonton with his family.
